We got copies for all of our friends because kids really seem to like it--the coloring part is really, really well done, and they like having the history stuff read to them (unless they're old enough to read it, themselves).

Highly recommended.

From beginning to end, a wonderful book filled with interesting tidbits to get you started on an adventure in Rhode Island. For being the smallest state in the Union, we have a grand amount of history and Rhode Island A-Z is a perfect introduction to local landmarks. Just trying to drive around finding everything in the book is entertaining. Well written with clean artwork,
I highly recommend this book for young and old alike.

Even though I have lived in New England for years, I learned a great deal about Rhode Island from RIAtoZ. The illustrations are charming, and the text makes this much more than a typical kids book. It's written from the perspective of someone who knows and truly loves Little Rhody. There should be a book like this for every state in the Union!!

We had Adam come to perform his Acme Miniature Circus at our Theatre in Brookline MA. He brought some books to sell, and I wanted to comment on how great the books are. Our patrons really loved them. We get a lot of kids and parents as patrons, and they all thought the book was fabulous. We are not even in Rhode Island! The book is entertaining, informative, and well worth getting.

As a former middle school teacher, I was thrilled to discover this delightful book that is truly user friendly for the whole family.... not only is it an interesting history of Rhode Island that has great illustrations that my grandchildren and I can color, but we will can also use it as a travel guide for discovering some of Rhode Island's most interesting places..

I saw this book in the library, and definitely am going to order it as a gift. It's got great illustrations, and thw writing is really clear.

One thing I really like is how it presents a lot of different things about the state. I grew up in Rhode Island, and there are things I didn't know about (like how the violet got to be the state flower, or the invention of the diner in Rhode Island)

I know you can't include everything, but it would have been nice if Foster had been on the map!

All in all, this is the best book about Rhode Island for kids that I've ever seen. It's perfect for children and even people like myself (age 27) to learn all about the state.

I've got nieces and nephews who are 8 and 9 years old who will definitely be getting this for Christmas.

I am a private school elementary teacher, and was given this book as a gift by one of my students. It is a superb introduction to the state, and especially appropriate for children in the third grade and above. Many of the subjects that are included in the book are part of the Rhode Island curriculum, and many of the places included are field trips that our class has attended.

The writing is clear, crisp, and clean, and the drawings are age appropriate and very engaging. I highly recommend this book as an adjunct learning tool about Rhode Island, as well as a fun introduction to our state. I plan on recommending it as a text book for our school system...

As a Rhode Islander living in South America, this book reminded me how homesick I am for quahogs and Haven Brothers!

Congrats to the author and designer who did a wonderful job putting together a book which is both fun and informative. Highly recommendable for kids of all ages who want to learn more about Rhode Island and see if they can do so while staying within the lines!
